Europcar Mobility Group UK has joined forces with The Green Parts Specialists, powered by Copart, an industry leader in used and salvage car auctions, for the provision of green parts to sustainably repair Europcar vehicles.
Since March 2024, the partnership with The Green Parts Specialists has seen Europcar significantly increase the proportion of its company car and fleet vehicles repaired using verified green parts.
As the UK’s leading green parts supplier, The Green Parts Specialists have access to a vast stock of approved green parts that meet all safety standards, ready and waiting to support Europcar’s network of repairers. With continued supply chain challenges, using green parts not only benefits the environment; it also reduces vehicle downtime as necessary parts are more readily available.
“Europcar has been committed to the use of green parts since 2017, and this latest partnership with The Green Parts Specialists enhances what we can achieve significantly”, said Robert Shaw, Fleet Director, Europcar Mobility Group UK.
Our first priority is, of course, customer satisfaction. Being able to access a verified supply chain of green parts through The Green Parts Specialists instead of using only brand-new parts has made a key difference to the speed of repairs by our network to optimise fleet availability.
As importantly, with a commitment to continually improve our sustainability credentials, the partnership means we are recycling usable parts from Europcar vehicles, which Copart is reselling through its network for other vehicle repairs, delivering significant Co2 savings.”
Lewis Woolnough, Sales Director at The Green Parts Specialists, added:
“We are delighted to be working with Europcar to provide fast access to affordable, quality parts that will help the mobility provider maintain high levels of customer satisfaction, whilst repairing and maintaining their fleet vehicles in an environmentally conscious way.
We operate stringent quality standards, offer a huge wide range of used Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) green parts to help with vehicle repairs, and carry out detailed inspections on every part we remove from vehicles to ensure we only provide our customers with top-quality green parts. With hubs all over the UK, we also offer incredibly efficient parts dispatch and delivery, reducing the time technicians are waiting for replacement parts.”
The use and sale of green parts is a key component of Europcar’s commitment to sustainability, which brings together innovative tech-based solutions, electrification across its network, and a growing range of low and zero emission vehicles on fleet to reduce emissions.
